Twihards: Twilight Theme Luxury Cruise in Washington

Last updated on May 6th, 2010 by Amy Lombard

In order to bring guests to the beautiful Pacific Northwest to see the natural wonder of this area, Seattle-based CEO Expeditions, is providing a special “Twilight Tour” as an optional add on to their popular San Juan Island charters this summer.

The Twilight movies have helped draw attention to the beautiful Puget Sound and the Olympic Peninsula, specifically in Forks, home of the Cullens, and La Push, home of the Quileute tribe profiled in the movies.

Luxury “Twilight” Cruise
From $27,500/week

CEO Expeditions is currently offering high end luxury cruises through the San Juan Islands, which are at the end of the Strait of Juan De Fuca, the same waters the tribe fished. As a special limited offer, a “Twilight Tour” has been created, beginning in nearby Port Angeles and shuttling guests to the sites of the Twilight series, namely Forks and La Push.

Private tours on land would be available, with a fishing option in nearby Neah Bay or the Hoh River. The only rain forest in the continental U.S., Forks is home to primeval old growth forests and rough windswept raw ocean beaches. Mega yacht Kayana also takes guests on a special “Twilight Tour” of San Juan Island charter near Seattle.

Gina Stanhope, company President, stated, “We are very excited about this special option and hope that it helps to draw guests into this area. The overwhelming interest and response in the San Juan Islands and the nearby ‘Twilight’ destinations have been extraordinary. Our past guests have had such a wonderful time, many of them are booking return visits with us. Because we have extended our offer to waive the usual $50-80K charter fees to introduce luxury Mega Yachting in the San Juan Islands and charge expenses only, we have opened up this opportunity to a broader market of people looking for a truly extraordinary experience. It is a trip of a lifetime!”
